"Lincoln of Kentucky emphasizes the particular skill and delicacy with which Lincoln handled the problems of a loyal slave state populated by a large number of Confederate sympathizers.".
"Lincoln urged the commonwealth to adopt a scheme of gradual, compensated emancipation, a position so unpopular that Kentucky voted for George B. McClellan in the 1864 presidential election, one of only three states to do so. It was not until decades later that Kentuckians fully recognized Lincoln's greatness and paid homage to their native son."--BOOK JACKET.
